Chapter 103
When everyone saw the arrogant expression on Mr. Quinton’s face, the surrounding crowd held their breaths because they were certain that Charlie would lose in this confrontation.However, Charlie had a calm expression on his face, and he smiled as he replied, “I think that this is not your first time participating in an antique trade. Do you have any idea what is the most important thing in the antique trade industry?”Mr. Quinton looked at Charlie with a cold expression on his face as he replied, “What?”Charlie laughed before answering, “Of course it is the rule governing antique trading!”After that, Charlie raised his voice slightly before he continued speaking. “In antique trades, it is always a first come first served basis. I came first, and I was the first person to buy this pebble. Therefore, this pebble belongs to me already. Even if you kneel before me and beg me to give it up to you, I will not give it to you, otherwise, I will be allowing you to break the rules today.

”Okay, sure,” Charlie agreed immediately with an extremely relaxed attitude. “I can only say that you are really amazing because you actually believe that that artificial stone is a jade.”Mr. Quinton was getting increasingly annoyed, and his face flushed red after getting criticized by Charlie. He turned around and looked at the massive crowd of people around them.“Mr. Zeke, Mr. Lionel, I want both of you to help me appraise this bracelet and tell me whether it is a genuine product or not.”The two people who had been called out by him suddenly felt very awkward as they exchanged glances with one another.This was because identifying the authenticity of an antique was usually very offensive toward the other party, regardless of whether it was genuine or not.“Mr. Quinton, we also have limited knowledge in appraising antiques. We would not be able to tell the difference.”Mr. Quinton immediately got angry and quickly said, “Don’t give me all these nonsensical excuses! I want bot

When Charlie saw how arrogant Mr. Quinton was, he sneered as he shook his head in disdain. “You can’t even tell the difference between a gourd and a jade plug? Haven’t you heard of the nine orifices or the jade plugs that were used on corpses?”“What do you mean by jade plugs and corpses?” Mr. Quinton asked with a confused expression on his face.Charlie sighed. “A child cannot be taught!” After that, he shook his head before saying, “You don’t even know this? Have you heard of the ‘Nine Aperture Jade’?”“What ‘Nine Aperture Jade’?” Mr. Quinton asked as he stared at Charlie with a blank expression on his face.Even though Mr. Quinton really enjoyed purchasing antiques, he had never spent any time studying any of his antiques at all. He would always buy whatever anyone said was good before going out to brag about his antique pieces.“Idiot!” Charlie sneered before he continued speaking. “The ‘Nine Aperture Jade’ consists of nine jade plugs that were used by people to plug the nine

Charlie replied coldly before he turned around to leave.When Mr. Quinton saw that the other party was about to leave, he thought that Charlie wanted to escape. Therefore, he yelled immediately, “Stop him! Who gave him the courage to do this? There must be someone backing this kid up!”“I can’t afford to offend you?! Hahaha! There is no one in the whole of Aurous Hill whom I cannot afford to offend!”“Tie him up and break his legs! I want to know who actually has the audacity to provoke the Quinton family!”In fact, Mr. Quinton believed that Charlie was someone that his business rival had purposely sent to provoke him. Otherwise, how else would he know about the car accident that he was in at the start of the year?The bodyguards acted immediately, and they rushed toward Charlie without any hesitation at all.Two other bodyguards walked toward Jacob and reached out their hands before they grabbed him fiercely.Jacob was frightened out of his wits as he had not expected them to g

The crowd believed Charlie and all of them really wanted to go home to check out the sports channel immediately.The expression on Mr. Quinton’s face was hideous right then, and after keeping silent for a short while, he finally regained his senses.This was embarrassing!The bodyguards he had hired and paid so much money for were all professional fighters that he had specifically recruited to protect him. Who would have expected…Who would have expected a young boy who came from nowhere to actually defeat all of these professional fighters, just by watching a television program?Mr. Quinton was not a professional fighter, and so, he did not know that Charlie was actually very skillful. However, his bodyguards were not stupid.They knew that he was an expert as soon as he laid hands on them.Even though Charlie was very humble, his moves were very deadly even when he did not use any strength at all.He was not someone they could easily defeat.Hence, the bodyguards did not ste

”Too weak!”Charlie became furious and moved aside in an instant as he tried to avoid her kick. After that, he lifted his leg and kicked Aurora straight on her ass, causing her to fall to the ground.Adam’s jaw almost dropped to the ground as he stared at the scene before him. He muttered to himself, “This… how could this be possible?!”Aurora was feeling even more embarrassed. Ever since she had started fighting, she had never felt more humiliated than this. Moreover, the spot that Charlie had kicked her on was way too embarrassing!Filled with anger as she stood up, Aurora prepared to rush toward Charlie and attack him immediately. She had already decided that this b*stard would definitely pay the price for his actions today!“Aurora, stop what you are doing! Do not be rude to Mr. Wade.”Just then, a middle-aged man suddenly ran up to her and grabbed hold of Aurora’s hand.Aurora, still utterly embarrassed, yelled, “Dad! Get out of my way! I’m going to kill him!”‘How dare he
Chapter 109
Graham was startled by Charlie’s words.His whole family would be ruined?Did he really have to pay such a huge price?Graham turned pale before he sighed and said, “I have never done any bad deeds in my life. I’ve tried to do good deeds and help the people in need every day. So, how did I end up in this state?”Charlie smiled before he asked, “Was this the reason why you wanted to buy that piece of topaz previously?”Graham nodded. In fact, he had already tried all sorts of different methods, but none of it seemed to work until he met Charlie.Previously, he thought that Charlie only knew how to appraise antiques, and so, he had not paid much attention to him.However, today, Charlie had actually pointed out the reason for their misfortunes without any hesitation. Now, Graham knew that Charlie was not an ordinary person at all. In fact, Charlie might be their only hope, and the fate of the Quinton family was in his hands.Graham quickly clasped his hands together as he pleaded

Charlie’s father-in-law was also feeling dumbfounded. This was the first time that he had ever encountered such an unexpected situation in his life.Charlie looked at the jade bracelet but did not accept it immediately. After glancing at it, he looked at Graham before he smiled and said, “Mr. Quinton, how can you be so sure that I will be able to resolve this matter for you?”Graham replied piously, “If Mr. Wade has no way to deal with it, no one else in this world will be able to handle this matter anymore!”Charlie could only smile because Graham was right. He indeed knew how to resolve this matter and divert the misfortune away from the Quinton family.This was because he had already read about this evil spirit in the , and the method to resolve this issue was actually very clear and simple.Charlie glanced at the jade bracelet before he took it in his hands in a casual manner.He examined the jade bracelet and realized that the crystal was really very clear
